How has the holiday shopping season affected Thanksgiving traditions?

English
2 answers:
Liula [17]3 years ago

The most commonly repeated story behind the post-Thanksgiving shopping-related Black Friday tradition links it to retailers. As the story goes, after an entire year of operating at a loss (“in the red”) stores would supposedly earn a profit (“went into the black”) on the day after Thanksgiving, because holiday shoppers blew so much money on discounted merchandise. Though it’s true that retail companies used to record losses in red and profits in black when doing their accounting, this version of Black Friday’s origin is the officially sanctioned—but inaccurate—story behind the tradition.

Lines 10-21: why is the number of young children" in the present deplorable state of the kingdom a very great additional grievan
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

It shows that the state in which poor children live is a social complaint, which exists, even if many do not recognize it.

Explanation:

Swift criticizes Irish society in general, in addition to criticizing the deplorable state of dependence that the country lived. However, he reinforces that in addition to all the social problems that Ireland presents, the condition of poor children is an additional complaint, as these children live in a deplorable way, within a kingdom that is already deplorable. In this case, he claims that the cause of these children is a social agenda, often ignored, but that it is present in society and is visible to everyone.

Which sentence would make the best hook for an introductory paragraph on whale watching?
elena-s [515]

<span><span>C. Have you ever wanted to play tag with the whales?</span></span>

<span>Choice C is the best choice as a “hook” to catch the reader’s interest in reading your essay. First, it is directed to the reader as an invitation to get involved. Secondly, it gives a new insight that whales can also be playful like dolphins. Thirdly, whales although not really as threatening as sharks are huge animals. To play tag with them would be very challenging and an almost impossible thing to do. Choices A and B are just declarative statements that inform and do not have an emotional connection to the reader; while D can be used as a supporting statement to choice C.</span>

When you think about your past, does it have any influence on how you determine to move
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

When I think about my past, I usually cringe, but I'm glad I want through those moments in my life because they help me think twice about what I do now. In the past, I used to get bullied by people I thought were friends, so now I look for red flag in people I meet. I met a guy in my class and we liked each other, but after a while he accused me of liking other guys, and I guess broke my heart. Now, I know how to act if something like that happens again.

Explanation:
